BenMar Farm is overjoyed to announce the birth of our stallion’s first sport horse foal! BenMar’s Bridon Belfrey, RID is the proud Papa of Briette, IDSH, a stunning liver chestnut filly. She is out of a bay maiden Anglo-Arab mare, Willow, owned by Jenna Ordway. This is Jenna’s first IDSH foal, who she says looks and moves very much like Belfrey.

Produced by Maggi Tyler at Harkaway Irish Draughts, Roma Blue Hawk, RID foaled a spectacular stallion son by Tony Philip’s Snowford Bellman, RID. Harkaway LionHawk, RID was then sold to and expertly raised by Liz Freeman at Flying Harp Farms. As a three year old, Hawk was presented for the 2004 stallion inspections. The inspectors called Hawk “Outstanding!”. The judges also commented how he closely resembled the great Blue Henry, RID, Blue’s Grandsire. Hawk went on that day to win Reserve Supreme Champion Youngstock, Best American Bred and Purebred in-hand Championships, and Best Get of Sire, plus Reserve Supreme Champion at the 2004 National Show! Hawk is currently owned by Tony Philips at Red Ridge Farm where he will continue his performance training and stand at stud aside his 2 half brothers!
